A bonus scene for the final chapter of With a Twist of the Kaleidoscope.

“Trust me,” Zhao Yunlan says.

Shen Wei actually huffs at him, as if he is being so patently ridiculous that fear-tinged fury would be too dignified an answer. “How can I trust you?”

Ye Zun tries a different tactic to defeat his brother, that may tear apart everything Shen Wei and Zhao Yunlan have worked to build between them.

[My 14h podfic version]

The lead-up to the mutual apology in episode 15, and what came after.

A little fluffy ficlet written for Guardian one year anniversary celebration in brush_and_lantern community here.

Zhao Yunlan's fingers tease open the buttons over Shen Wei’s belly. As he undoes them, one finger brushes against the cold skin under the cotton and Shen Wei sucks in a breath. Zhao Yunlan chuckles. “Is Brother Black ticklish?

Zhao Yunlan tries to convince Shen Wei to go on a working date to a university costume party.

A little Shen Wei introspection.

A pictorial map of Zhao Yunlan's apartment.

(For the purposes of spatial discussions, I am designating the wall with the front door as NORTH.)

But hey, keep your friends close, your enemies closer, and your mysterious half-formed crushes the closest of them all, so Zhao Yunlan grins at the intrepid professor and extends an invitation. “I'm on my way to a crime scene. Care to tag along?”

"I can't remember anything. Anything but your face."

Waking up with no memories can be a hard thing; not knowing who you are and who you were before. Alone and scared. Yunlan could perfectly understand that and so he tried to give this Shen Wei some free pass for being a mess, but what he couldn't understand was why did the gods suddenly decide to punish him with a man yelling "begone!" at a toaster at four in the morning? Zhao Yunlan was the best Guardian so far, he did NOT deserve this.

(or: no one in the entire world—both above and under ground—could tell yunlan a single thing about the mysterious shen wei aside from the fact that he was definitely NOT human and should NOT be messed with. figures that the second part would totally fly over yunlan's head.)

Shen Wei has issues letting go and would rather watch, but he still takes up the invitation to join.

After That Scene in episode 23 because I want 800 years of that nonsense.

When the depths of the underworld are more welcoming than the land of the living, you know you have a problem. Zhao Yunlan isn’t sure why the Ghost King keeps letting him wander in, but he’s not complaining.

Or, 一切. At work, in public, Shen Wei is meticulously, seamlessly polite. In bed, he's something else

Shen Wei knows he is a fool, but he yearns now to pore over these 'pointless' details: to imagine every moment of Zhao Yunlan's life leading up to their meeting.

Zhao Yunlan knows. He knows, and Shen Wei has no idea what that's going to mean.
